How is the monitor connected? VGA, DVI, HDMI, can-and-string? If Chrome is having issues it may be GPU related - see if you can disable graphics acceleration in Chrome - but it may also be bad RAM, so I'd try running Memtest86 to check the memory and maybe Prime95 as a stress test for the whole machine.

Please send pics of your weather, it is a grey and miserable 52° up here...
